Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Bajaj Pulsar N125
- Looks: The N125’s design language is a fresh one and doesn’t look like any other Pulsar
- Lightness: 125kg kerb means the N125 feels super light, especially when riding through heavy traffic
- Smoothness: its engine is smooth, even at highway speeds
- Suspension: it’s very comfortable on bad roads too
- Price: undercuts both its chief rivals: the TVS Raider and the Hero Xtreme 125R
Hero Xtreme 160R
- Superb suspension that smoothens bad roads.
- Punchy performance for everyday use.
- Fun and light handling that is good for weekends and weekdays.
- All-LED lighting lends it a premium touch.

Bajaj Pulsar N125
- The front brake could’ve been a bit sharper
- It misses out on ABS, something even the Bajaj Platina 110 gets
- The finish levels and panel gaps could’ve been a bit better
Hero Xtreme 160R
- Lack of top-end performance makes overtaking at highway speeds a chore.
- Instrument cluster misses key features like gear position and range indicator.
- Soft seat is uncomfortable for longer rides.

I have been using this bike for 4 months now and till now I have not faced any problem nor any driving issue. It is a very good bike. I will recommend this bike to all of you and one special thing about it is that its internal power is very dangerous, you will definitely have fun.I will tell you all again that this is a very good bike

My Opinion on hero Xtreme 160r
Speed and look are awesome. And handling are outstanding. By the way. It's value for money. Iam saying like this because iam using this bike from 1 year and it's still giving me it's best. But theres only speed limit of 120. One thing I like the most are it's headlight it's so bright and clear you can see properly in the night and dark areas
